RED BLUFF!

If you haven't visited Red Bluff, let me be your "guide." This wonderful town of about 15,000 is located on the Sacramento River. It features Victorian homes and an "Old Town" shopping area with lots of antique stores and specialty shops. The people are friendly - even the sales clerks in "Wally World" (Wal-Mart). It's hard to believe that this little town is part of hard-boiled ultra-sophisticated California. Artists abound. There is a restaurant in a 100 year old Victorian. Another place of interest is the Kelly-Griegs Victorian, a museum. All around the city are farms and large lots for building at really good prices ... about half what it is in most of California.

Red Bluff is the gateway to beautiful Lassen Park. You can also travel a few miles further and visit Lake Shasta as well as Mount Shasta. Do come and visit us one day!

Our Life History!

Not really. But for those who are wondering, "are you the Anne or Marvin Whiteman who ...", here are a few details.

Anne (nee Elrod) lived in the San Fernando Valley from 1949 to 1995; Marvin from age 2 until 1995. They sold real estate there, and had their own company named Genesis II Real Estate. Anne taught real estate and oil painting at the local college (San Fernando Mission College) and private schools. Anne was president of the Mission Hills Chamber of Commerce.

Marvin was the first president of Mission Hills Kiwanis.

They were the first couple married at Devonshire Christian Church in Mission HIlls, CA and their daughter Jamie and her husband Evan were the last couple married there before it merged with another church.

Anne's Dad's natural family "found" him after 60 years, and that started her researching the family history, which became a major hobby.

They went through the Sylmar earthquake in 1971, living in Sylmar at the time about 1 mile from the epicenter. They lived in Northridge at the time of the Northridge quake of 1995. Again, within a couple of miles of the Epicenter.

If you recognize us from any of the foregoing, write and say hello.

Here Are Some of Our Lost Family Ancestors!

Still researching our family history! But these people elude us ... the two RUNDELL brothers who came to the U.S. on different ships at different ports .. probably Boston and New Orleans. Also, Daniel SPRAGUE of Pennsylvania who married Susan APPLETON. Ludia GOODEN who married Mathias WHITEMAN. Any ancestors of Mathias Whiteman. Lula Jane MALONE McCOWN's first husband. Her children were Drury and Lula MALONE. Who was her husband? Did he die in the Civil War? These are just a few of those I am trying to find. Thank you in advance for your help!

As for "found" family, I have a pretty complete line on the name POTTENGER, plus I can supply information on the names McCOWN, ISAACS, CATE or CATES, REED, and a number of others that have been shared with me. Working together is half the fun!
